Balwyn North 7 Tuxen Street
The upmarket downsizer
In a rare offering and situated at one of the highest points in Melbourne, this charming home is perched upon a level block in a private street. The design of this unique home was the first of its kind in Balwyn and today it is bursting with potential. Renovated and extended using quality materials, astute downsizers will appreciate the fusion of character charm and modern comfort. The gorgeous formal lounge room with an exquisite open fireplace adjoins a dining room. Both robed bedrooms are spacious and a second toilet accompanies the bright bathroom, while the central kitchen boasts granite benches and a Bosch dishwasher. A large family room extension is framed by French doors accessing gorgeous gardens maintained by water tanks. A covered pergola with slate tiling is a perfect outdoor area, continuing to a double carport that was designed to match the house. Highlights: ducted heating, air-conditioning, alarm and storage. Alternatively, the north-south orientation could be ideal for redevelopment into a new family home (STCA), to capitalise on the lifestyle benefits of this location, within the Balwyn High School Zone. Enjoy a leisurely stroll to trams and close proximity Greythorn and Balwyn shopping, the freeway and Westfield Doncaster with reserves nearby too!
